Choose how you feel; you have seven options

Choose how you feel; you have seven options (2016) is a work by Ruben van de Ven.

What does it mean to feel 47% happy and 21% surprised? "Choose how you feel; you have seven options" is a video work that revolves around this question, as it looks at software that derives emotional parameters from facial expressions. It combines human accounts and algorithmic processing to examine this intersection of highly cognitive practices and ambiguous experiences. Interrogating the discursive apparatus that is being erected.
